BILBREY Remember when we. entered school back in 1941? Little did we Com Junebug realize what the coming years held for us. Yet the thrills, ex- citement and sorrows of each year will never be forgotten. Each AGNES BOYD JANICE BOZEMAN class slipped away from us-we found ourselves as Jr. High Stu- Jan dents. Our ego was inflated to the bursting point, until we saw those high school students swarming all over the campus. Soon we, too, entered that institution -of higher learning-1949 was the year. As freshmen we were led through this new ad- venture by Michael Giammetta, Pres., Jimmy Richardson, Vice Pres., Mary Ruth Edenfield, Sec.g and Tom Clark, Treas. Clubs formed at our requests were a great success and joy to each of us. Boys became interested-in athletics, and many girls had their hearts set-on leading cheers. Tom Clark, Ronnie Brannan, Mary Ruth Edenfield, and Joyce King, made up our Sophomore slate of officers as Pres., Vice Pres., Sec., and Treas. respectively. That year, we Sophomores had our first big experience of voting students from our own class into the Student Council. We all got behind our candidates, tried to outthink each other, and came up with clever slogans. Our Junior year proved to be the most exciting of all the three years to us. As our officers we chose Michael Giammetta, Pres.g John Barton, Vice Pres.g Mary Ruth Edenfield, Sec., and Carolyn Riley, Treas. A Date With Judy, our class play brought out many of our hidden talents. Those who were not in the play helped in the all important jobs of stage management, getting prop settings, prompt- ing players, and ushering. Everybody was busy--tired-but, Oh! what fun we had. One of the most glorious days in our Junior year was when we became the proud owners of our class rings. For weeks afterwards, every Junior flashed his ring in the face of all the envious Fresh- men and Sophomores. mv Seniory, riIe and return to your home roomf.

We worked feverishly to meet the May 9th dead- line. The theme Showboat, sprang to life as we neared the end of our Junior year. At last. the night of all nights!! May 9th-- the Show Boat docked. We dressed up in our best Deep South garments, loaded the Seniors aboard the Haven Showboat, drifted through dreams of those eleven years, and gave the Seniors a banquet that would have dazzled the eyes 0f'the old Showboat Captain himself. But the fun wasn't over! The last assembly . . . remember? We walked out first that time. Many of us were active in Baccalaureate and Graduation Ceremonies . . . Then-we were the Seniors. We chose Bill Branch, Pres., Bobby Hornsby, Vice Pres.g Mary Ruth Edenfield, Sec.g Shirley Coker, Treas. toguide us through our last year of learning, working and playing together. Now, let us look at that momentous year . . 1952-1953 September 2-Get the lead out-pencil that is. The books are dusted, the floors are varnished, and the teachers have recuperated. School has begun l l l September 19-To the strains of the Band, we paraded to the stadium for the first assembly of the year. Here, the faculty, old and new including the new supervising principal, J. C. Mitchell, were introduced and the baseball players received their Sou - Florida Conference Championship jackets. That night the Blues were victorious in the annual Blue and Gold tilt and the fans of both sides joined forces and made merry at the Kick-Off Dance. September 23-As the gavel sounded in the jam-packed room of 202, the first meeting of the Student Council opened with many plans for the coming year. 23 bonu: 4.0, t,..., ,.,....,. ,.x,, N. . .,.,A.

This, his first play in this school, was termed a tremendous success by townspeople as well as the students. Time off for lunch!

The building rose high above us, and we stayed close to our friends. Our minds were blank from trying so hard to remember the room .numbers that were given to us on Freshman Day. The friendly smiles and the help that we received from teachers and upper classmen gave us courage to carry on, not only through the first few days, but through the many days to come.

STUDE T CCLINCIL To create a better relationship between the students and faculty, is one o fthe main pur- poses of the Student Council. This democratice organization consists of the officers of the Student Body, the president of each class, and the president of each homeroom. These students have a great responsibility, through the whole schools' voting they have been invested with power to lead the school. The student council has as other purposes: to unify all student organizations under one general control, to foster sentiments of law and order, to promote healthy activities of the school, to promote better scholarship, leadership, character, and service, to foster school spirit and to develop the feeling of responsibility in participating in the government as citizens. Welfare Christmas boxes, one of the Council's projects, was a huge success as all home- rooms pitched in and filled their boxes almost to the point of over flowing. Since the school was in need of another flag, the Council took it upon itself to buy a new one. The school handbook, directory, and schoolday pictures were also sponsored by the Student Council. The Student Council also reviewed the possibility of changing W.H.H.S.' Alma Mater. This group of students is always on the job ready to carry out the best methods for the school.

HO OR SQCIETY Leadership, character, service, and scholarship are the basic qualifications for member- ship in the Winter Haven Chapter of the National Honor Society. The faculty awards this honor to hardworking juniors and seniors who have proven their will and ability to develop these high standards. During the year the members of the Honor Society included in the program the tutoring of students who desire assistance in academic work. Some also had practical experience in the classroom by substituting in the elementary schools. This year, the club had its annual car wash, on Saint Patrick Day, with the slogan All Green Cars Washed Half-Price. Proceeds of the carwash made possible the purchase of another water cooler for the school. Discussing our project Helping those who desire help Leadership . .

TORCH LUB Stressing high standards of scholarship and citizenship, ninth grade students with a B average or better are chosen for membership in the Torch Club . Due to major handicaps, this club did not get started until late in the year. They did, however, undertake a very worthwhile project which every school should have-an honor roll. This will give recognition to students even though they did not make an honor club. In future years, it is hoped, this club will play a major role in the Freshman class.

Annually the junior Red Cross conducts a drive in which the proceeds go to help com- bat the major diseases of today. Not only is this club active in Winter Haven High School, but they have as one of this year's projects the making and sending of scrapbooks to foreign lands. Okinawa and Japan are two of the countries which in turn have sent beautiful and informative Scrapbooks to us. Every summer, two students chosen for outstanding work in the Red Cross are sent to a camp which teaches them many valuable ways of care and prevention for everyday ills. Not all is work, however, as students who have been there will tell you. The club earns its much needed existence through service to the school--and the world.

KEY CLUB The purpose of the Key Club is to develop initiative and leadership, to provide experi- ence in living and working together, and to serve the school through its administrative officers and the community. The boys shine trophies Each Tuesday morning the Key boys have a meeting which consists of a program and plans for coming projects and services to our school and community. The club is under the capable sponsorship of Mr. Chester Mann. The pep tags sold to students before football games to build school spirit was a very suc- cessful project. The Homecoming Parade, sponsored by the Key Club for the first time, was the biggest ever staged. On February 12 the club also sponsored a leadership tea to which all the club presidents were invited. The Club Council was organized as a result of the tea, placing Wesley Lerdon as temporary president. Need it be said the tea was a success.

LATIN CLUB Although some people may think the Latin language is dead, members of the Latin Club have proven conclusively that it's still very much alive. This year the club continued its project of selecting and buying books with a Roman background for the school library. The Latin Forum, held each year for all students of the language, strives for better understanding and enjoyment of Roman history. Students who attended the function received valuable help in the study and understanding of Latin. On initiation day, sacks and chains were worn and the initiates had to sing familiar songs in Latin. The whole day was full of excitement and was climaxed by a banquet at the Haven Hotel.

The Club has as its aim, the development of personality, social poise, and personal appearance in its members. This year the girls competed in the Homecoming parade with a very attractive float. During February, the Sub-Deb members were invited to a fashion show at one of the leading stores. Here the girls were shown new styles and materials of formals and other wearing apparel. Another interesting program was a visit to a leading beauty salon where the girls re- ceived free shampoos and hair styling.

U N .ss BLUE DEVIL VARISTY FOCDTB LL Haven High's 1952 Blue Devils, who at the beginning of the season were rated fourth in the Northern Division, pulled one of the biggest surprizes of the year when they won their first South Florida Conference Championship. This year's squad consisted of eleven returning lettermen from the 1951 team. From these veterans and a few newcomers from the B squad, Coach Ausley made a Champion- ship team. It can be said that the Devils had to do it the hard wayg the squad was con- stantly hampered by injuries. When the season finally came to a close, the Devils had a conference record of six wins, two losses, and a tie, and an over-all record of six wins, four defeats, and one tie. This is one of the best records the Blue Devils have had in several years.

AUSLEY SENIORS Winter Haven-2 Jesuit-0 The Devils opened the season against the Jesuit Tigers of Tampa and won by a very impressive score of 2--0. The lone two points came from a safety late in the game. Winter Haven-0 Manatee-O In their next outing the Devils played Manatee to a 0-O tie. The locals later defeated the Hurricanes for the S.F.C. Championship, Winter Haven-6 Sarasota-13 Sarasota's Sailors handed the Blue Devils their first setback of the season by a 13-6 score in a hard fought game. Winter Haven's lone score came when center Bobby Blackwelder picked up a Sailor fumble and raced untouched the remaining forty yards for the six points. Winter Haven-6 Ft. Myers-7 The powerful Ft. Myers Greenwave top seeded team in the S.F.C. squeezed by the Devils with a 7-6 victory. The Devils' score came on a sparkling fifty eight punt by Bike Giammetta. The contest was played in a down pour. Winter Haven--12 Haines City-13 Winter Haven went outstide the conference and were handed their third straight setback by the Ridge Conference Haines City Hornets by a close score of 13-12. RUDY HQLTON JAMES JOHNSON -ik Qian RAY GATLIN RALPH TURNER JACKIE CARTER CDF I953 Winter Haven-19 Lake Wales-33 The Devils continued their disastrous losing streak by bowing to the Lake Wales Highlanders of the Ridge Conference by a 33-19 score. This was the worst defeat of the season for the Devils. Winter Haven-19 Tarpon Springs-12 Winter Haven finally returned to the win column at the expense of the high flying Tarpon Springs Spongers who were previously undefeated. Winter Haven-13 Plant City-6 The locals made it two in a row as they rolled over the Plant City Planters 13-6. The Devils, who were heavy favorites, were unable to push the small Plant City team around as was expected and were able to score only two touchdowns to the Planter one. Winter Haven-7 Bartow-O The Devils needed a win over Bartow to clench the Northern Division Crown. The Devils were host to the Bartow Yellow jackets for the W.H.H.S. annual homecoming. The Devils entered the game as the under dog. The locals scored an early touchdown and held a 7-0 lead for three and a half quarters to win over the highly rated Yellow jackets. The win as- sured them of the Northern Division title and a chance to oppose the Manatee Hurricanes at Tampa.

Coach Becky Waldrop kept a close watch out for any defects in the player's skill and made sure these were corrected. All was not work as any team members will tell you, for the matches they played were really fun even with the butterflies, Many out-of-town trips were taken which proved d erience for all to be able to play on other types of courts besides cement. goo exp I ' I Tennis is fast becoming one of the malor sports at Winter Haven High as there were almost twice as many out for it this past year than the one before.

AN Operation Beauty-Parlor was accomplished this year when band members and major- ettes received new uniforms, complete with red jackets and gold plumes. In this band, students gain valuable experiences which prepare them for future work in the Concert Band. The Blue Devil Band gives those who have had little experience in marching and other requirements for Concert Band work a better background in music. -Mer 1. if if , f -t -, If If ' 5 S Helen Snead, Dorothy Ellis, Fairy El- - lerby, Leonard Chisholm, Miles Plow- J f, fi, 1 den.

Their audience is held in awe by the splendid style which has de- veloped through many hours of hard work. Everywhere the band performs this group of girls is seen with them. Their superior half- time exhibitions are always skillful and beyond reproach. Many girls wish to become members of this highly publicized unit, but few ever achieve such an honor And these few must put in many hours of hard work to achieve almost perfection.

Perhaps you have been one of the lucky ones to hear some strains of lovely music coming from the auditorium every sixth period. Or maybe you have sat in Nora Mayo Hall and listened to the finished product of those days of vocalizing. Since the Glee Clubs organization only a few years ago, the songsters have steadily grown under the guiding hand of the director, Mr. Walker. The club has given numerous conterts this past year. In january lucky members of the chorus were chosen to attend the All-State Vocal Clinic held in Tampa. Shortly afterwards, work began on the num- bers to be sung at the District Contest the sixth of March. GLEE as l ,552 OFFICERS Student Leader: john Larson, Assistant Leaders: Bill Branch.

Diversified Cooperative Training is planned on the philosophy that each student in the program should have the opportunity to discover and develop his interests, aptitudes, and abilities which wifl enable him to become a more valuable citizen. D.C.T. students are required to devote two hours each day in school doing study pertaining to the job that they have as a trainee. The remaining two hours in school are devoted to regular academic work required for graduation. D.C.T. stu- dents receive a high school diploma which is acceptable in any college in the State of Florida. Although students are given aptitude tests prior to selec- tion of a job for training, their own desires: are given consid- eration in the job selected. The co-ordinaror keeps in close Contact with the student and his employer to see that he is making satisfactory progress in his training. The entire program is designed to let the students graduate from high school with a diploma in one hand and the know how for a job in the other hand. r ZELMA ADAMS BETTY BARROW Tampa Electric DF- MCKibbCn NINA WARD CORBITT ANNETTRL DRAWDY Margaret Ann Leonard Haizlip THELMA CALHOUN OTHELIA CONOLEY Lamb Furniture Co.

X0 5 41,4 GAG 06, pp H -weoomlng Haven High s Blue Devil is published by a staff of thirty journalism students, who strive to give W.H.H.S. students the who, when, where, what, why and how each week. The weekly extra! extra! resounding through the building proves to W.ll.H.S. students that the clicking of typewriters, the mob around the copy table, and the mad rush through the halls really weren't in vain. This year's staff, though small and inexperienced, has worked hard, with the help of our faculty advisor, M. Sloan, to publish a school newspaper that would compare favorably with those of previous years. The Blue Devil Staff feels that it has accom- plished its goal, despite the hardships resulting from a publication price more than double that of past years.
